Univision Bets on More of Record‘s Biblical Dramas

The Hispanic network is promoting the premiere of two new biblical dramas from the Brazilian giant: King David and The Rich and Lazarus.

Boosted by Biblical dramas' success on their screen, Hispanic network Univision is already promoting the premiere of the next two major productions by Record: King David and The Rich and Lazarus.

The first, with 30 episodes, will premiere on December 11 at 8:00pm, while the second will take its place once it ends.

With these two new premieres, Univision is completing Record's Biblical saga, which began back in 2016 with Moses and the Ten Commandments on UniMás.

Given the success of that telenovela, which allowed UniMás to surpass Telemundo in prime time for the very first time, the Hispanic company decided to raise the bar and premiere the rest of Record's production on Univision, its main network.

First came The Mircales of Jesus, followed by Joseph from Egypt, and then The Promised Land.

From the new premieres, The Rich and Lazarus is the chronological continuation of The Promised Land, premiered by Record in 2017. King David, however, originally premiered in Brazil in 2012.

Apocalypse, premiered in Brazil in late November, is Record's newest production, this time based on modern times.

In addition to King David and The Rich and Lazarus, Univision is also promoting the premieres of the Televisa telenovela, Papá a toda madre, and its own original production, Descontrol, developed with W Studios.

To be the link between the main players in the entertainment industry is not an easy task. It means creating a platform aimed at a group of highly informed and demanding professionals. But with great effort and commitment, we did it.
